Kyle Moyle (born 19 January 1993) is an English rugby union player who competes for Gloucester in the Premiership Rugby. His main position is a fullback.

Moyle started early in his senior rugby career playing for the Pirates Amateurs, St. Ives, and then, in 2011/12, the Cornish All Blacks, which was the same season he received the Cornwall U20s ‘Player of the Year’ award.[1]

During the 2012–13 season, Moyle was signed by Cornish Pirates in the RFU Championship following a successful trial.[2] He made his debut in the 2012–13 British and Irish Cup winning 30–10 against Welsh club Swansea. This marks the first time Cornish Pirates won a game in Wales since 1949.[3] Injuries have at times disrupted his progress, but when fully fit he has proven himself a scintillating runner who has scored some super tries. He was the ‘Try of the Season’ award winner in both 2014 and 2016.

Impressing playing mainly at full-back through the 2017/18 and 2018/19 seasons, with his try-scoring exploits also again on show, he, unfortunately, suffered a serious knee injury away to Ealing Trailfinders in the semi-final of the RFU Championship Cup.[4] However, he still picked up both the ‘Player of the Year’ and the ‘Supporters Player of the Year’ awards for a second year running. Since returning to action from December 2019, Moyle was also selected in The Rugby Paper's Championship ‘Dream XV’ for the 2019–20 season.[5]

On 8 November 2020, Moyle signed for Premiership side Gloucester on a short-term loan, with fellow Pirates teammate Jay Tyack until January 2021.[6] However, after several impressing performances for the side, Moyle signed a permanent deal to stay with Gloucester on an undisclosed length deal.[7]
